Kim, Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian's little sister Kendall Jenner caused a storm of controversy by posing seductively in a tiny bikini, but her family stand by the mature modeling shots.

“When you’re a model, you clearly have to show your body,” older sister Kim told Access Hollywood of her 15-year-old sister's pictures.

Kendall’s father, Bruce Jenner, said that he does not think the pictures were “inappropriate whatsoever,” although he was unaware of the stir they were causing since he was in the country at the time.
